OPERATION PROCEDURES
PRESSURE TORQUE SETTING
1. See torque wrench instructions for amount of pressure required
to produce desired torque.
2. Loosen lock nut and back out relief valve to prevent unintended
pressure builds up.
3. Turn pump on. Press and hold the “ADVANCE” switch, and read
pressure gauge.
4. While holding the switch, turn relief valve in (clockwise)
to increase pressure or out (counter-clockwise)
to decrease maximum pressure. Repeat until
correct pressure is obtained.
5. Tighten lock nut on the relief valve to maintain setting.
6. Run pump several times to test this setting before
setting tool on the nut.
AFTER COMPLETING THE JOB
Before disconnecting hoses, fittings, etc., first be sure the tool is unloaded and retracted, then unplug
the power cord. The pump is designed to cycle the valve upon powering off to release pressure.
PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
Completely change the hydraulic oil and clean the intake screen and magnet (located in the reservoir)
twice a year. If equipped, change the external oil filter twice a year (Use TorcUP oil only, Model # AO1,
1 gallon). Change the oil more frequently when used in extremely dusty areas or when the oil has been
overheated. Using oil other than TorcUP Brand may void the pump’s warranty.
The following conditions require more frequent oil changes.
•Rigorous duty, where oil temperature may reach 150˚ F.
•High humidity environment and extreme changes in temperature that can result in condensation
inside the reservoir.
•Dirty or dusty environments that may contaminate the oil.
•Frequent connection and disconnection of hydraulic hoses and components.
Make these adjustments BEFORE putting torque wrench on nut or bolt
head. The pump pressure setting may be above the pressure needed
to provide the required torque for your application.
Exceeding required torque will cause equipment damage and may lead
to serious personal injury.
The electrical power cord must be disconnected from electrical outlets
before performing maintenance or repair procedures.
